BulkSupplements.com L-Isoleucine Powder - Amino Acid Supplement, BCAA Supplement - Unflavored & Gluten Free, 1g per Serving, 250g (8.8 oz) (Pack of 1)

Shout out to bulk supplements. I really like your products. They do not disappoint. High-quality supplements with no bad stuff added. Couldn't be happier. I gave it a 1 star in flavor because no amino acids taste good. especially plain. It has nothing to do with your actual product. I do not want to disillusion buyers that amnio acids, taste great plain. We are on a subscribe and save due to how happy we are with your products. We use the Essential amino acids, oolong tea, green tea, green coffee bean, L-leucine, l-isoleucine, l-valine, and creatine. We make a pre/post-workout mix with these and a protein shake mix. We definitely see the difference. I like that there is nothing added so we are not getting bad fillers or chemicals. I recently also purchased your calcium carbonate to use with my homemade toothpaste and mouthwash.

I've become very interested in MAP. (Master Amino acid Pattern.) I want to give it a good try to rebuild and tone my muscles which have turned kind of flabby the last few years. Only problem is, MAP is VERY expensive. So, I found the formula and buying the bulk amino acids to make my own and encapsulate them.Also, after reading "The Diet Cure" which explains how our hormones and neurotransmitters depend upon amino acids for their production and use, which is supposed to stop food, drug, and alcohol cravings. Particularly sugar cravings, which I battle and suffer from. I also felt that I need these amino for that too! This seems to be a viable way for me to experiment with the products. I found this product at a good price and they guarantee no fillers. Nice and clean with excellent packaging. I am pleased with my purchase, and will be even more please when I start seeing results.

In addition to being a ketogenic amino acid L-isoleucine is also classified as glucogenic. This means that it is functionally necessary to help produce glucose from non-carbohydrate substances in the body. Without this glucogenic synthesis, glucose levels in the blood would fall to dangerously low levels. This is of special concern during periods of strenuous exercise where energy sources are being used up much more quickly than normal.According to some in the industry L-isoleucine is most effective as a supplement in terms of boosting energy and increasing endurance. This makes sense when you consider that the synthesis of glucose from non-carbohydrates would accomplish both of those things. That said, there's no clear understanding of how much L-isoleucine is needed before it results in a measurable benefit. It is known that a lack of this amino acid can result in a condition known as hypoglycemia, among other things.Lastly, researchers and industry experts believe L-isoleucine helps to promote the rebuilding and repair of muscle tissue in the hours immediately after a workout. However, L-isoleucine's catabolic properties mean that it should work in just the opposite way. Nonetheless, supplement makers stand by it as an affective amino acid for muscle rebuilding.

Good product if you are low on L-Isoleucine. No flavor, easy to mix with water/liquid.

There is some evidence that additional isoleucine may contribute to decrease blood glucose levels. Studies in rats and short term studies in humans clearly point in that direction. Despite healthy diet (less than 10% of calories from carbs, only fruits), normal weight and daily exercise (lifting and running) for one year, my HbA1C is above normal (6). Therefore, I decided to do a three month experiment on myself: three months ingesting 10 grams of isoleucine after morning workout.I will report abut my experiment in three months. A sample of 1, non-blinded. If my HbA1C gots 5.7 or below it will be a success.Received the package on time, well protected. Have been using it for a few days now. It is difficult to dissolve but it you put on a cup of hot water, stir it and microwave to boil it will dissolve (just learned it today!). I am planning to prepare my solution every night and drink it after my morning workout.So far, everything seems perfectly fine with the product. I have been unable to close the zip of the bag. But that happens to me with every bag that has these plastic resealable zips... If they can improve it will be great.

It was recommended by my doctor, but I had a reaction to it and am not able to use it. However, the price was very reasonable and the order was filled promptly. The taste is extremely bitter and it is difficult to dissolve. I did discover that mixing it with goat yogurt made it easier to dissolve and took away some of the bitterness.

Why would anyone use any other Supplant product?? High quality and reliable. I mix my own BCAAs from these purchases and save big money.

I purchased this product to assist in glucose disposal. I am unable to confidently verify noticeable effects, but it could very well be having a positive impact. I have simply not tried this product against other brands' L-Isoleucine powder products.There is virtually no taste--it can just get clumpy when wet.No complaints. Will update if I see noticeable effects.
